Sure. Personally, I give a US Savings Bond to be given to the child at graduation or 18th birthday . It is a tidy sum by then.
No, graduation presents are optional. You do not have to send one.
Graduation cards are not a must but a thought provoking gift. It is not necessary to buy all of them a gift, but buying each one shows that they were in your thoughts.
A camera, a gift, and a smile.
An Olive Garden gift card is a possible graduation gift. You also could give her OPI nail polish.
Anything you can afford should be received with gratitude. You could give $50 - $100 or more depending on what you feel like giving his child. It's up to the individual.

There are a variety of ideas for graduation gifts depending on the amount of money you wish to spend for this gift. I know that many graduates in our area are given a vacation, but that could be a rather expensive gift.

* It depends why they didn't invite you. If it was a small graduation party and a very few people there or you live out of town then yes, send a gift, but if they simply left you out on purpose then don't give a gift.
A common amount for an 8th grade graduation gift is between $20 to $50. Ultimately, the amount will depend on your relationship with the graduate and your budget. Giving a personalized gift or a gift card to a favorite store can also be thoughtful options.
